>>Anyway I assume you read all those and still believing we did it, then OK you're right we did it and I regret.

Show me a country that completely avoided incidents that appal us today and let them throw the first stone at Turkey.

FWIW, New Zealand has a very positive attitude towards Turkey. Early last century, NZ and Australian troops were sent by British officers to attack at a place called Gallipoli. Our troops were slaughtered- tends to happen when you land at the foot of cliffs occupied by the enemy.

Ata Turk's noble behaviour afterwards is remembered to this day by young NZers who travel to Turkey every year to celebrate this ill-conceived attack, gaze at the christian cemeteries of our troops that were established by Ata Turk's orders and are maintained by your country to this day, and reflect with your countrypeople on lessons we can learn from such a sad episode whose whole purpose is long gone.

If you think about this you will see that I am not trying to blame Turkey or extract an apology for things that happened in another time and place.
